Wedding DJs NEED this program! Mixcraft 10.5 Pro Studio Stems has endless possibilities.
Mixcraft 10.5 just added stems. I know, so did everything else. Now, Mixcraft also has a Melodyne integration that allows for audio to midi conversion. It's not perfect yet but it blew my mind how good it is for the first pass.

Do DJs need an external mixer?
zhlédnutí 197Před 3 měsíci
This question comes up from time to time. The answer really depends on what other gear you are using.
Bet you didn't know Akai made this (I know I didn't)

The Akai AMX10 powered mixer is an interesting find. I honestly can't remember if I paid $20 or $40 for it, but either way I am happy I have this thing kicking around. It's not listed on their legacy page so info is sparse shy of a PDF manual in German and some old magazine articles I managed to find.

A quick look at the 2 channel version of the PTU 7000 line of wireless microphones. You will be hard pressed to find a better deal than this mic system. This video was not sponsored in any way by Phenyx Pro, though they did sponsor my previous video on the 4 channel unit.

I'm saying this in the most loving way possible: dude looks like dwight schrute, and I get to see dwight talking about a digital mixer life is crazy

@@MaxSplVideos thank you for existing sound tech dwight
Do you know ? How is the stock Godin humbucker in this compared to the Seymour Duncan that comes in the Pro version.
First. Not a bot.
Why not just use virtual DJ live?
Most DJ programs actually have better stems than Mixcraft. Where Mixcraft shines is the audio to MIDI conversion.
Show close ups
Try using it with Djay Pro. Works flawlessly. And the neural mix is great. I use them together in my ipad.
I have the Ui24r and keeping a connection has been a big problem even when my tablet sits on top of the unit. I also use another one with my band....same problems. I set up an external router on both and they work but at times there's a disconnect. Both the routers were used so that might be a reason why they aren't used anymore so I just bought a more powerful one and configured it. So far so good but your advice of turning off the auto connect sounds good. That'll be next. Great video.
Rcf 310 mk4 is better ???
Does the age matter on a Mixer ? I mean a Yamaha MG10XU would 2014 would not sound as Great as a rane one ?
Sound quality wise age isn't to big of a deal with mixers. Newer mixers do tend to have better sounding effects, but that's not always the case. An MG10XU is still being made today, and for good reason. Yamaha mixers are great and the built in compressors are so much nicer than hauling around a rack compressor.
@@MaxSplVideos thank you for advising me . I am looking for value xlr cabel also . Can you please advise me ?
How do think the Yorkville PSA2S compares to this in terms of punchiness and overall performance and sound profile?
I haven't heard them myself. I have yet to hear a Yorkville subwoofer that I don't like, but I much prefer 12s and 18s over 15s so I likely would prefer the PSA1S over it.
Has everything needed to get a good live sound and works in the studio too. The fx and modelling for guitar and bass is ok too. The 12 and 16 are on the small side for a full band though. Just purchased a second Ui24R, these are great digital mixers. One should take note of that multritrack recording 16-20 tracks at 24bit on the 24 is best with an externally powered SSD or Nvme, it can use all the space available too. The build in Wi-Fi is not good though, so best to get a small router, found a tiny one from MikroTik which also has PoE on one port, which can come in handy when using powered antennas. Using that router to have wi-fi and lan for the mixer and a mini pc with a touchscreen, tablets are nice but to small. If more channels are needed, two 24’s can be cascaded. The only thing I wish they also had is Dante, would make it a lot cheaper to connect to FOH.
Hi! Would you recommend one graphic equalizer for my home audio system?
I don't like using graphic EQs for anything other than live sound, but that could just be me.
Just got one myself and love it for my 4 piece acoustic band.
does the ui16 have the patch feature?
I can’t download any song, pay for premium plan but always pop a windows tell me need to upgrade for other plan, what can I do?
Contacting them is your best option.
I’m having a big issue with my ui16 I keep getting the “connecting” message on my screen if I hold my iPad a no farther than a foot away from the mixer. So I cant control the sound well I’m am playing anymore without having to leave the iPad setting on the mixer. But we played a show at a different place and it worked well, I could walk away from the mixer to sound check. But then, that same day we played at our weekly gig and again could not connect. I’m new to mixing and I do my best to research but I can’t figure this out. And it’s messing with my bands show every week. Is there a fix without buying a router? Because it worked just fine at the other show. And some weeks we set up just the same as every week and it just works fine allowing distance from the mixer and not freezing with the connecting message. Is there anyone willing to help me and walk me through this? Thanks for any suggestions or help!
A router is a good idea, but it sounds like you are having the issue I mention in the video where your iPad wants to connect to the venues WiFi. Make sure you have automatically connect turned off for any WiFi options at that venue.
I've been using a pair of these for about 10 years. Fantastic subs!!!!! I paid close to $2k for each. They weigh in at 120lbs, but are easy to move around with the built in casters that allow you to just tilt the cabinet back and roll. My favorite subs from the last 30 years of DJing. I've used 18s, 15s, double 15s...these double twelve base reflex speakers are amazing. They get down low low low, they have a very controlled wave, not bloated base. You are the only person I've ever seen review them. QSC has a double 12 sub...it's "meh" compared to this. I've gotten lots of compliments on the low end characteristics of my system. I use the Parasource Powered 12 for tops....they are amazing. 60 lbs each but very easy to move aroud because they have handles on both sides and on the top. They put out a mind blowing amount of base - down to 45 hz . People are astounded to learn the cabinet is loaded with a 12 and not a 15. Also, I love the yorkville sound. It has great forward presence and the high end is gentle on your ears. It was worth the investment. I also have a set of yorkville NX10. Very innovative design. The speaker pole actually can go all the way THRU THE CABINET so you can mount more then one on a pole and point them in different directions. They can also be used on the floor as monitors. Very versatile little speaker. Fantastic midrange. Vocals, again, have a real presence here. Glad to see another person enjoying Yorkville!
Great vid man, thanks. I’ve had one of these since 2008/9 and it’s never let me down. However, one question for you! I play a laptop into RCA inputs on channel 11 and I use a pair of EV sx300’s out of the speakons on the back of the Pa… my bass amp head just packed up running through an ashdown abm410 (with speak on inputs)… is it possible using the ST OUT on this amp (I know these are Jack out but bear with me) that I can run my bass through the ashdown cab via this mixer whilst simultaneously running my EV passive speakers? Those speakers have speak on in and out, and I’ve successfully plugged the out into the ashdown but of course that then has the laptop backing music and vocals coming through the cab, which don’t sound as good… I realise it’s probably impossible just to use this for my bass independently into the cab and the ev speakers running vocals and backing tracks… but if you know a way of doing it (maybe with a pre-amp/DI box?) would be amazing to know… cheers man 👊💥
THANK YOU for actually taking off the capsule! You've confirmed to me that the capsules are replaceable and that they are actually Shure Beta58a copy capsules which is what I want. It's literally the first thing I would do so I'm amazed that I've been through many reviews and nobody even seems to have even thought of it. EDIT. it's a proprietry size of capsule so no fitting shure capsules or anything like that. The handling noise is high on the mic and the plosives are too high on the capsule.
Which sub would suits?
good afternoon, thanks for your review Does the Typhon 15 have noticeably better bass compared to the Typhon 12? The size of Typhon 15 is huge, Typhon 12 is simply small in comparison I choose for electronic dance music, which is better - wharfedale typhon or macki thump 212 and 215, what can you say about this in comparison? I also have a sub wharfedale t sub 15, and I'm thinking of buying another one
Hi, can you recommend some monitor speakers to connect to the Aux1 and Aux2 inserts? I do have that mixer and has been very useful with my band, but we need to add some monitors so we can hear better ourselves on stage.
You will have much better luck with an Apple device on the Soundcraft. An external router of any kind is also always a great idea.
I got a Beryl AX router from router and used double sided tape to tape it over the WiFi sign. My rack case cover still closes over it. I turned off the 2.4ghz network and just use 5ghz. Don’t know the range but I’m always close to the mixer and don’t have any problems. Using my iPhone with it is a real pain though.
far too much talking
Can you use the hdmi for monitor? And the usb for mouse and keyboard? For UI16
I stopped using my Ui12 because the connection was not reliable enough. It would only work hard wired. It would not stay connected on wifi. Either the built in hotspot or a external router.
Nope. Mine is always connected to an external WiFi6 router. Never had issues and not going to risk using the internal WiFi router.
Great video- but I'm unclear on one thing. I'm not sure that the crossover works as both a low pass for the sub and and high pass for the tops, I think it may just be a low pass point for the subs and not affect the tops. Can you confirm that this crossover affects the tops also? Thanks!
Thank you for sharing.
Saw a pair of Delta AX12 for £200. Worth it ?
same price range as the mackie thump 215 XT. which one to choose?
ooooooo the 24 channel one is tempting even when I have an interface... Is that bad?
Hi can you give me more details of your setup like what is unit above the mixer Thanks
I have a wireless mic system prewired in and a power strip, so nothing crazy. The wireless mics are nice because I can walk into an event and just run my mains and be ready for speaking events. It is overkill for DJing but I do bring it to some events as well.
I want to purchase one I think you sell them ? If yes, maybe I can get it from you I’m in Montreal Let me know Cheers
Could it simply have been that the default Amazon tablet browser didn't support HTML5?
Thanks brother, very helpful video
Please i need a solution...am so frustrated with the ui24r i just got few months....the wifi is not blinking and the hdmi is not showing also..just the LR blinking till eternity..please what is the solution
Best bet would be a factory reset and if that doesn't work contact SoundCraft as something could be physically wrong.
I carry a couple. Mostly because I always have my trailer with me.
does the Xover on the sub affect the speaker signal ?
no ,, low cut sectio will afect the sub , low cut will cut all signals sub and top
I just bought one (Arktik Blu) and love it. I keep going back and forth as to swapping out the stock ceramic pick-ups with alnico's, but so far the they sound great.
If you get the footswitch it turns this into a pretty professional gig amp ... Use tone room to adjust the levels of the modulation pedals and control the midrange eq ... The ac30 setting sounds just like am ac30 ... Most fans and people at a gig will not be able to tell that its not an ac30 trust me
I'm still trying to find out how to seitch the guitar fx on and off without having to switch snapshots of the entire mix or having to touch the mixer. Is there some sort of footpedal to control the effects on/off via midi somehow?
There is a footswitch input on the side but I have never used it. I would take a read through the manual and see it will do what you are looking for, could solve your issue.
Okay… so
Just got one. Unboxed it and was very surprised by how beautiful the color was.
FACTS!!!! I always have extra and new in package that they can purchase. Turn Frustration into $, at least it makes it easier to teach acts what is acceptable prep for a show. Unfortunately most people don't learn lessons without some cost involved. The interaction then becomes a "Teachable Moment" for the unprepared . Seems that's something we have in common.
Thank you for a simple and good review! just got a used one and can´t wait to use it. I didn´t quite get the part about using it with powered speakers. Should I connect them to the speakon-outlets or the other ones? It says in the manual to only use non-powered speakers, could that be right?
Glad you liked the video. For powered speakers DO NOT use the amp outputs on the back, that would likely start a fire. If you have powered speakers use the ST OUT on the top panel near the headphone jack.
@@MaxSplVideos Thank you for taking time to reply, deeply appreciated! I actually spoke to a friend of mine and he said just the same, to use the ST OUT instead för powered speakers and the pther ones on the back for non powered. Just like you stated in the video :) Thanks again!
do you think this AX12 can 'throw' the sound farther/further than the TItan 15 ?
Your comments really helped me a lot in short listing which speakers I should consider.
You liked it and recommended it. How about some detail?
Hi, Dan! Really interesting points! Its hard to find videos about this speakers… Im considering get the Tourus AX 15mbt, but have some doubts about the sound quality and volume. The specs on the site of Wharfedale are very interestings but I would like to know in a “real life situation” if could be comparable (in terms of sound quality and volume) to Electro-voice, Alto, QSCs… Thanks for the video!
In my experience the Tourus sound great for the money. My QSC speakers sound better, but you would expect considering the price differences. I am using older HPR122i speakers, but for a modern example a K12.2 is roughly 3x the price of a Tourus AX12 here in Canada. Long story short, the Tourus sounds as good and is as loud as just about anything in its price point but don't expect them to compete with speakers 2x or more. Now, the Typhon line is a different story. I sold my EV ELX112 speakers because my Typhon AX12 speakers made them irrelevant. They sound as good or better than anything I have used up until about 120db (they start getting a bit harsh in the highs around there). If I need more volume than that I lug the HPR122i's.
